Chapter 1426: Chapter 885: Individual Reactions

Amidst the shock, a hard-to-conceal joy surfaced on Shi Hao’s face.

Firstly, the elders in Liu Village treated him well. Grandpa Lin was kind and amiable, Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen, the two elder brothers, were hearty and generous, warm and open-hearted. Besides, there were many familiar friends in the village.

Even from an observer’s perspective, Shi Hao sincerely hoped that Liu Village would continue to prosper.

From the several occasions when Senior Liu acted to turn the tides, it is apparent, not only in the vast Immortal Domain but also in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, that Liu Village was absolutely the only Pure Land.

As long as Liu Village doesn’t fall.

As long as Liu Village doesn’t perish.

As long as Liu Village continues to exist on this land, then the beings of Ten Thousand Clans will have a place to shelter, and a breath to survive.

If it really is as No Origin Fellow Daoist said, then Liu Village probably has two Emperors,

not to mention Senior Liu, who is a True Emperor.

With Senior Liu presiding over the four corners of the world, overlooking the Heaven and Earth, and this newly promoted Quasi-Immortal Emperor guarding the Immortal Domain, where might there ever be darkness when Emperor’s Flame burns?

More importantly, Shi Hao had a bold guess in his heart.

Looking at the current representatives of Liu Village in the world, it is very likely someone he knows who has made the breakthrough to Emperor Realm.

Although uncertain, intuition tells Shi Hao that there is a high probability he is right.

“I wonder who made the breakthrough?” Shi Hao suddenly felt his mind heat up, hardly able to restrain his speculations.

There are quite a few in the village that are close to him, especially Tu Wa Zi and Gu Chen, with whom he has shared life-and-death bonds. The three met in the Lower Realm and developed a notable friendship, each capable of entrusting their descendants to the others.

Tu Wa Zi’s talent is barely sufficient, and the fact that he could break through to his current realm is already considered miraculous. As for Gu Chen…

Shi Hao’s eyes brightened up, could it be that the latter has made the breakthrough?

Gu Chen has exceptional talent, possesses the Sky Tyrant Body, his blood flows with an undying zeal akin to the primal chaos at the dawn of heaven and earth, vast and endless, shockingly, an unprecedented gift of this generation.

Compared to his Supreme Bone, it places more emphasis on bloodline and physique.

If that’s the case, it’s certainly a good thing.

Their relationship being what it is, should any issue arise in the future, they can look out for one another.

Moreover, with future uncertainties and darker turmoil looming, more formidable enemies are hidden in the shadows.

Alone, I am ultimately weak, even with Cruel Man, No Origin, and three Fellow Daoists, it wouldn’t be enough; otherwise, why would they need to exhaust their efforts to reverse time and space to find me?

But now it’s different.

My companions are likely to increase.

“Looking at your expression, could it be that you already have a suspicion?”

Cruel Man’s eyes twinkled, the vicissitudes within shone like stars at dawn, as he smiled and asked Shi Hao.

“I do have a suspicion, but I dare not confirm it and better left unsaid.” Shi Hao nodded, and shifted his tone, adding,

If it’s correct then good, but if it’s not, it would be quite embarrassing.

Gu Chen might be a possibility, Ten Crown King, and Banished Immortal are also likely. The latter two also boast impressive talents: one possessed double legacies of True Dragon and Kylin from birth.

The other has a complete inheritance of the True Phoenix Technique and a unique horn of the Heavenly Corner Ant as a weapon.

Whether it’s talent, fate, or anything else, they are all outstanding among men.

Besides, there is Lin Hai who has not shown up for a long time, whose talent is even more mysterious,

neither cultivating the Law of Life nor the Immortal Ancient Method.

It seems he has been building his own cultivation system from the start, more original than even me who pioneered the Human Body Secret Realm System.

Shi Hao didn’t plan to disclose his guess, and Emperor Merciless and others didn’t keep asking, but all harbored their own thoughts.

They don’t belong to this stretch of time; this matter is merely for observation, although it is still closely related to them.

Their eyes met, puzzlement deeper than understanding.

A village with dual Emperors, not to mention that the Master of Liu Village is a true Immortal Emperor, and likely a very powerful one within the ranks of Immortal Emperors, otherwise how could he suppress such a quickly advancing Phantom Immortal Emperor?

Looking at it now, the forces of Liu Village are unprecedentedly grandiose and beyond imagination; even with their current perspective, it’s unimaginable.

With such immensity, already a giant, and even closely related to Emperor Huang Tian, why would Liu Village completely disappear in the future?

What kind of disaster must have occurred to lead to that?!

Their attention hadn’t really drifted to this issue lately, considering from the Chaotic Ancient Era to their current timeline, the gap spans more than just an era or two, and anything could have happened.

But now, it seems they are at the end of the Chaotic Ancient Era, Huang has also stepped into the Emperor Realm, barely able to assist them, yet Liu Village has remained unchanged from start to finish, thriving and increasingly unfathomable.

The reason they have stayed here all this while, firstly, is because life in Liu Village is very comfortable, with no signs of cosmic rejection. Secondly and most importantly, they wanted to witness firsthand what exactly happens in Liu Village to lead to its future absence?

If they can act to change it, they will act.

If they can’t change it, it’s good to be clear-headed.

The group no longer spoke, heading straight to the plaza, finding a spot where they simply used a small method to make themselves invisible to others.
